I’ll be pretty inactive on this blog, and the new one is just for writing. I basically use tumblr as a messenger app. I’ll be re-following a bunch of people, but if you want to follow me and still be able to receive messages, then THIS is the blog you should follow.
GO FOLLOW THE NEW BLOG IF YOU WANT TO TALK TO ME; OTHERWISE, BE SAFE AND I LOVE YOU ALL.
Have you ever been in a crazy fast relationship?
Like, everything is moving super fast and everyone is going haywire and all your friends are telling you that this relationship needs to end, and you’re like ‘come on, guys, it’s not a huge deal! It’s not like, serious! We’re not getting MARRIED or anything, right?”
Right?
Anyway you’ll hear from me when I write something.
A lot of the lists on tumblr have been circulating all week and some of the organizations have taken in as much as they can use with the size/scope of their mission. I signed up to the excellent Reclaim the Block who are maintaining a live list of organizations in need that are serving the community most impacted by the uprising.

hi i don’t know if i’m wording this right, but if any of my black mutuals at any point feel like i’m trying to speak over them or overstepping any boundaries, please tell me so i can stop doing it
Please don’t just do spells. You’ve gotta mix your magic with action.
Donate. Protest. Educate. Support a Black-owned business.
Don’t let the lighting of that candle be the only thing you do.

As protests continue all across the United States remember that it IS okay to protest at home. If you are disabled or ill or cannot go out and physically protest for another reason PLEASE do not feel guilt. You can be just as active from your home by doing things like: Sharing BLM posts, sharing posts on how to protest safely, sharing posts about medical resources in your area for protestors. You can also educate yourself and others. Amplify Black Voices, and donating to bail out funds or other foundations. Do NOT feel bad if you can not physically join the protests. You CAN still stand with the movements.
I feel like there’s already a gun behind my back with this law in the verge of passing so please.
white and non-black people, its not enough to spread around these links. yall need to be having the hard conversations with yourselves and those around you about antiblackness. talk to your friends & family, educate yourselves! correct racism, whether its lowkey or blatant immediately! your ignorance, whether intentional or not, and your willingness to let things slide when your friends and family say some racist shit is exactly what gets us harmed and killed.
honest to god feel like we're on the brink of civil war here in the states
if I see one more 'viva la revolution' type post I'm gonna start throwing rocks. this isn't exciting or fun this is sobering and terrifying. the president of the united states is threatening to sic the country's military on its own people. are you aware of how fucked this is? this isn't some movie or book or video game or whatever, this is real life and people are going to die.
stop acting like this is some great and powerful thing. it's not. it's ugly and scary.
I live in Minneapolis, I was at the third precinct the day before it fell. This isn’t a fun video game or fantasy story revolution, it’s terrifying. Not because there’s resistance violence or because some stores got looted- but because we stood there for hours pleading for the police not to shoot us while we demonstrated and they did anyway. When they switched from flash bangs to tear gas MPD was escalating the situation which lead to further mayhem. All the occupations without police presence have been peaceful and organized while the ones where they show up become fractured and the police feel they have free reign to open fire.
Because we’re entering a state of martial law, the state troopers brought stingrays- people are loosing their ability to document and disseminate information- a black CNN reporter and his team were arrested live on air while standing near his white coworkers who weren’t. They don’t want people to see the massive gatherings of protestors being assaulted by police and hamstringed by the gov and his cronies.
It’s not a joke or a game, it’s not your fucking meme material. It’s peoples lives, it’s George Floyd’s justice on the line with so many others who have been slaughtered by police.
That’s not even to mention the fact that only one of George’s killers was arrested, the three other complicate cops are still walking free.
